Descripción

Outsourcing Paradox offers a profound interdisciplinary exploration of how outsourcing reshapes not only organizational structures but the very nature of knowledge, responsibility, and ethical practice in contemporary clinical research. Drawing on extensive professional experience in pharmaceutical science and grounded in philosophical inquiry, Afrim Bytyqi examines outsourcing as an epistemic and moral transformation rather than merely an operational strategy. The book addresses themes such as tacit knowledge, testimonial dependence, epistemic silence, emotional dimensions of knowing, and the erosion of professional agency within highly delegated systems. Through a distinctive blend of analytical reflection, lived experience, and philosophical depth, the author reveals the hidden costs of efficiency-driven structures and calls for a renewed ethic of presence, care, and responsibility in scientific practice. Written for scholars and practitioners across philosophy of science, bioethics, science and technology studies, organizational theory, and clinical research, Outsourcing Paradox is both a critical diagnosis of modern knowledge systems and an invitation to rethink how we inhabit them.
